Wise Aging: An Elderly Mother, Her Aging Son and Life's Final Journey—Zoom

Sunday, June 12, 2022 13 Sivan 5782

1:00 PM - 2:30 PMZoom

Dave Iverson was a 59-year-old San Francisco broadcast journalist and filmmaker when he decided to do something he’d never imagined. He moved back into his childhood home when his 95-year-old mom could no longer care for herself.

Dave’s new memoir"Winter Stars: An Elderly Mother, An Aging Son and Life’s Final Journey" is the story of their ten-year caregiving odyssey, lasting until his mom’s passing at the age of 105. It’s a book Michael J. Fox calls, “A gift — a modern classic of frontier literature documenting the uncertain journey into the country of caregiving.”

In this presentation, Dave will read excerpts from his new book and discuss our country’s growing eldercare crisis. The pandemic’s ongoing toll has prompted more people to consider caring for an aging parent, partner or spouse at home. But with someone turning 65 every eight seconds in this country, how prepared are we?

Join us for a conversation about the challenges and choices family caregivers face.
